Hi!
Why does copying files from P: to M: take much longer than copying from P: to 
C: or from C: to M:?
P: and M: are network shares on the server (see below) which are on different 
SCSI-drives.

[c:\]timer & copy p:\PW3241B1.ZIP c:\ & timer
Timer 1 on: 19.00.47
P:\PW3241B1.ZIP => C:\PW3241B1.ZIP
     1 file(s) copied
Timer 1 off: 19.00.48 elapsed: 0.00.01.28
[c:\]timer & copy c:\PW3241B1.ZIP m:\ & timer
Timer 1 on: 19.00.53

Configuration:
Server: Warp Server Advanced, no FP, 3com 100 TX (Full duplex, crosslinked), 
SCSI-drives
Client: Warp 4, FP 5, 3COM 100 TX (Full duplex, crosslinked), SCSI-drives
Using half duplex causes the same problem.
I guess the server isn't the one causing the problem, because copying the 
same files with a Win95 client works at normal speed. Thus please excuse my 
posting of the IBMLAN.INI and PROTOCOL.INI of the Warp4 client.
